Early tickets for Hong Kong-Singapore travel bubble sold out
Flights for the initial phase of the Hong Kong-Singapore travel bubble have all but sold out in both directions, according to the websites of Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd. and Singapore Airlines Ltd.
The bubble is due to open on May 26, and demand was always going to outstrip supply given there will only be one return flight per day between the two financial hubs at first, and with capacity limited at 200 travelers.
There were no departure flights available Wednesday morning on Cathay’s website until June 5. Searches for designated bubble flights with Singapore Airlines yielded nothing until the agreement broadens to the carrier offering daily flights from June 9.
